A Terrible Accident in a Mine.

CHICAGO, October "a special from
Dixonyille, Ky, says: A terrible accident
occurred at Benke's mine last evening re-
sulting in the killing of one man, three
fatally injured and twelve seriously hurt.
The cause of the explosion was the accumu-
lation OF the dust of bituminous coal, sup
plemented by several blasts which were
fired as usual when each shift leaves the
mine. In this instance the blast had been
premature, and number of miners were
in close proximity to the explosion, not less
than sixty men being in the mine at the
time

In the city of Sioux Fails, according
to the Press of the 1st inst, values have
risen and an extensive demand for real
estate has asserted itself since it became
a settled fact that the Duluth line oil

A couple OF large transfers, the direct
result of the certainty of the road, are
noted by the Press, as follows:
The effects of definite settlement of
the fact that Sioux Falls is TO have the
Manitoba was manifested yesterday by
several large transactions in real estate,
the most important of which was the
sale of the Commercial hotel to o. Ct.
Goats, who will deed to q. j. CLARK

the city, and the balance another farm

and 200 head of hogs, and consider

Il. b. Pettigrew sold by telegraph
$40 900 worth of land from his tract of

cemetery. The purchaser is gentle
man who recently visited Sioux Falls,
and went away, but upon hearing of the
fact that the Manitoba had been defin-.

bargain which he had looked at during

investments made upon the basis of this

The farmers and holders of farming

extent do they recognize this that they
are generally willing to contribute right

aid to the extent of their means in Sc.
curing the road. No reilroed enterprise
ever met with such general and enthu.
siastic favor as this. All classes recog-

man has declined to pay the tax assessed
and outside the city there is but one
demand and that is for the road.

has called the chief requisite OF a great
man-the ability to keep his mouth

speaking to your correspondent one dsy
| this week in regard to Miller, said:
| Miller's judgment is considered equal
to that of any western railroad man,
though he. is younger than nearly ali
of those holding high positions, because
he has never made mistake. His
strong point is that he cannot be forced
into expressing his opinion or deciding
any important matter till he has
thoroughly digested it; in other words
he never goes off half-cocked.

Ihe Mitchell Repnblican Saws:

The Yankton Press suggests that 8
test case be made in the interest of the
settlers being driven off the Grow creek
lands. Yes, and let it be carried to the
supreme court of these United States
for final settlement. And while test cases
are in order, why not make one on some
of the Sparks outrageous decisions ?
And then when public sentiment is fully
aroused on the subject of the rights of
the people OF Dakota, why not unite and
make test case on the right of this
territory to admission into the union
without further delay? Dakota has
suffered enough from the whims and
caprices OF congress and individuals,
Temporarily occupying positions of re-
eponsibillty. 1t is time she sought relief
from the highest legal tribunal in the
country.
Through years of abieot submission

has been unable to reach vulnerable
spot in the public conscience. II there
is q medium for an appeal to the courts
1t should be employed.

Bismarck has a call for bonus from
Aberdeen, Bismarck & Northwestern
railroad company and a correspondent
of the Tribune complains that the
wealthy men of the city decline to re-
spond to the call. This correspondent
says:
1t is notorious fact that many of the
wesithiess business men and property
owners have refused to contribute one
cent, while others who are comparatively
poor but who have the proper spirit have
subscribed generously to the fund.
The remedy suggested by this CORE
spondent is Boycott against those who
decline to contribute TO the fund. Pos.
sibly these delinquents are not SO well
able to respond as might appear from
surface Indications. Many OF Bismarck Is
best men all but bankrupted themselves
in purchasing the capital and are not in
q condition to purchase railroad. The
occupants OF frontier towns are not
usually overburdened with wealth.
